Improving Evolutionary Algorithms with Multi-representation Island Models
Abstract. We present an island model that uses different representations in each island. The model transforms individuals from one representation to another during migrations. We ...

A Niche for Parallel Island Models: Outliers and Local Search
This paper reports on the development of a novel island model for evolutionary algorithms, which is intrinsically parallel and intended to better utilise resources and outlier sol...

The importance of a two-level perspective for island model design
— Our theoretical understanding of island models (IMs) is much worse than of single-population evolutionary algorithms (EAs). As a consequence there is relatively little guidance...

GPU-based island model for evolutionary algorithms
The island model for evolutionary algorithms allows to delay the global convergence of the evolution process and encourage diversity. However, solving large size and time-intensiv...

Voronoi-initializated island models for solving real-coded deceptive problems
Deceptive problems have always been considered difficult for Genetic Algorithms. To cope with this characteristic, the literature has proposed the use of Parallel Genetic Algorith...
